To blog or not to blog, was my one big question.
Keeping in touch on line, I thought might be one solution.
Can I reconnect with family and friends with no interruption, follow my blog and check out my life's celebration.

TV Thursday - My list of shows

The new season has already started for most of the shows that we watched. There are days when we end up changing the recording and watching live because of conflicting schedule.

Tonight is the first show for the season of Big Bang Theory - my number one favorite. Then there's a bunch more that I like watching but of course if I can't there's also On Demand. So here's my top ten in no particular order.

Big Bang Theory

Grey's Anatomy*

Two Broke Girls

The Voice

Dancing with the Stars

Parenthood

Modern Family

Private Practice

New Girl*

Harry's Law

* These are the two shows that my daughter watches this season.

And then there's the other day and night shows that I do watch because it's interesting or it helps me with my nap.

House Hunters/House Hunters International

Ellen

Diners, Drive ins and Dives

Golf Channel

Curious George

How it's made

Good morning America

Property Brothers

Chopped

Game Shows on the GSN - not HD - but it's ok.

What is sad is the NHL lockout which will make winter months longer without hockey. I feel for all my Canadian friends. What are they going to do for evening activities, what will their excuse to have a beer at their local pub, and how are they going to survive their weekends hanging out with their wives. Truthfully what the fans should do is not buy any tickets this season and fans boycott the season if they decided to play. Maybe they will think twice next time they want to do this lockout, without the FANS, they players won't have the indecent salary they are receiving now.

I was just telling Leesh that i felt like the Grey's season premier was lackluster compared to my other show's ("Dexter"- SO GOOD and the only reason we pay for Showtime- and "Hart of Dixie" my favorite guilty pleasure). That said, when they showed scenes for tonight's episode, i thought this one should have been what they opened with.

I still went back on youtube and watched the scene between Sloan & Lexi from the season finale. SUCH great acting and i cried all over again.

Parenthood is one i wish i had watched because everyone says good things about it.

Here's to another season of our faves! :)

ps. I didn't get into "New Girl" but i watched the first episode of "The Mindy Project" (it came on after it) - i'm going to give it a try :)

Hooray for the CUBS

The World Series Champion Chicago Cubs deserve to win. It was their turn. After over 100 years, they finally have a trophy. For those who watched the nail biting 7th game, it was worth cheering for the Cubs. Although if the Blue Jays was playing, I would definitely cheer for them. The Cubs fan will definitely celebrating for days.

About Me

Retired early to enjoy life. Moved to San Jose, California to join my husband. I love music, sports, sewing, cooking, dancing and poetry.

Why Cranberry Portage?

There is a small town somewhere in Manitoba named Cranberry Portage. My husband's great grandmother owned a small property there. While looking for a recipe, I stumble on a cookbook from Cranberry Portage. During my daughter's recent visit we talk about having a name for our home which becomes a bed and breakfast for our Canadian visitor. She suggested Cranberry Portage and I loved it.So the name of my blog was born.

SPOTLIGHT- My favorite SIL

His name is Mike and I am very happy that my daughter has him in her life. There are so many qualities that Mike has that makes him my favorite son in law. Well, actually I only have one, Mike. One very funny story to share. When my daughter started dating him, she specifically instructed me that I would never shot pool with Mike. The reason behind is that the other boyfriends she dated lost against me at pool, then shortly after, they broke up. So you get it, right. To this date, I have never shot pool with Mike, and I am happy to announce that they are still very much in love and happily married. Happy birthday Mike and thank you for taking care of my favorite daughter.
